      I have my own website (ryandouglassart.com) but I’m looking for alternative ways to showcase my work

      In particular I would like to compartmentalize my work based on subject - for instance the stuff I do for my children’s books can go together and comic material can be in a separate group

      That way publishers aren’t looking at material that wouldn’t necessarily be appropriate for a children’s book

      Is a website the only way to achieve this?

      Any Ideas would be appreciated

        @Ryan1106 very possible for a website. You could setup subdomains. For example cartoon.ryandouglassart.com or kidlit.ryandouglassart.com and then you can create multiple instagram accounts and point to each of the subdomains. Then if you decide to market yourself with postcards you could put the subdomain that fits with that market.

            You could have your portfolio filterable by keywords if your website allows. That way someone looking can click 'comics' and it would filter out everything and leave only the comic based work. This way all your work is still in one place, but people viewing the work can quickly get rid of the stuff they're not looking for
